Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
I can't imagine there being that many jobs critical to public health and safety where there aren't already mechanisms in place to allow for low-risk job action. It's not like there is a glut of suitably trained people just waiting around to work as scabs.
So, yes, the only purpose of this exception is to allow companies to play games with strange and wondrous definitions of what constitutes "public health and safety".
Also: The parties would have 15 days to come to an agreement. If they cannot come to an agreement, the CIRB would decide what activities need to be maintained within 90 days.
